What the Nypeak D076A costs to run
At 267 kWh/yr, the Nypeak D076A's ENERGY STAR certification puts it one of the cheaper models in its category to run against every other certified dehumidifier.
That $50 is priced at 18.8¢/kWh, the average of all 51 state rates this site tracks. Your own state's rate is one click away.
How the Nypeak D076A compares to other dehumidifiers
Against the category average of 378 kWh/yr, this model uses 29.4% less, ranking 115 of 546 dehumidifiers tracked here for running cost. 546 certified dehumidifiers, one average, about $21/year of daylight between it and this model; the full methodology has the rest.
Neighbouring models
Right next to the Nypeak D076A on that list: HUMILABS OL22-D076K ($50/yr, 267 kWh/yr) runs slightly less, while UIDYGGD or FYHXZYB OL22-D076FFN3B1/FE ($50/yr, 267 kWh/yr) runs slightly more.
Within the Nypeak lineup
The Nypeak D076A is the only dehumidifier from Nypeak that ENERGY STAR currently certifies, so there's no same-brand model to weigh it against here, only the full dehumidifier category.
Lifespan
NAHB's Study of Life Expectancy of Home Components does not publish a figure for dehumidifiers, so no lifetime cost is shown here rather than a guessed one. The annual and monthly figures above stand on their own.
Shopping for a new one
Efficient as certified dehumidifiers go, $50/year is a reasonable baseline if you're comparing what else is on the market.
Worth comparing a few current certified models before deciding.
If you're keeping it
The Nypeak D076A already costs $50/year to run; a repair bill on top of that is the kind of expense a protection plan exists to smooth out.
How this was checked
Two sourced numbers, nothing modeled: ENERGY STAR's certified kWh/yr for this exact model, and EIA's published state electricity rate. The full Dehumidifier category page shows all 546 dehumidifiers ranked by cost; the state-rate guide covers the half of this number that isn't the appliance.
